There's a Poodle so rude and intrusive
His loud barking is shrill and abusive
A busybody pest
An interloper at best
But offers love both true and effusive

Always something
You will be forever changing me
Forever doing something
I forget about making you doing nothing
Actually I gave up haha
You will be forever being a busybody
Getting into everybody's business
But it's your job, isn't it?
I am not officially auditioned for your job
So I will let you be
So you can do whatever
Say whatever
And I will go along with what You have
So we shall see, shall we?
God!  don't you ever rest?...

If you must journey far
Learn to follow the stars


Know just where you start out
Do well with silent shouts


Time and space in sure mime
Cannot anchor odd chimes


Coming and going styles
A change of guard sans smiles


Start your heart here and there
Do you dare to know where


Begin and end and start
Once again with your heart


The busybody mind
Can often look so blind

She brags that she’s a busy* lady;

Thus, has no time for anybody

while ceaselessly daydreaming

of good work's triumph-screaming!

Now, she needs to rest her tired body. 

*1Peter 4:15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.

Roary Raccoon was dazzling in his orange banded witch’s hat.
Are you now a warlock? Asked his nemesis, Mr. Busybody Cat..
Roary’s loud sigh was not enough hint for this big buffoon.
Whose yowling is annoying every night next to the moon.

I am a stylish raccoon, Roary informed him in his plain way.
I can be an astronaut, physicist or physician any old day.
This hat does not make me a warlock, you fuddy fiddle fee.
Please take your busybody habits with you far away from me....
